LOL Seriously - he's SO not handy it's not even funny. I'm the handy one in the family. For Yule this year, he bought me a jigsaw - that's what I really wanted! So yeah - if anyone were to build a gazebo (we already have one luckily) or convert the shed to a coop or anything, it's me.

Hi Guys sorry I am not on here so much and there seems loads to catch up on!!!!!!

I will try to read all the posts but right now -
Blue is leaving us tomorrow!!!!!!!! -

At least I know he is going to a good home and the best bit is
HE CAN TAKE THE HE/SHE BIRD Omlet is GOING TOO!!!!!!!!!

Well I so could not Kill him and I sooooo couldn;t seperate Blue and the he/she bird!

Yesterday Omlet was a hen - Yeah she was !!!!! I got her out of the cage and she just squatted on down there right infront of me and all day she was A HEN!!!!!!!
I kept telling her now lay me an egg - But NO EGG!!!!!!!!
Today Omlet is a BOY!!!!!! - I got Omlet out and what did he do went straight up to a hen and down with a wing and did the rooster thing?????
NO CROW - not even a squeek of a crow!!!!!

So she will for ever be known as the HE/She bird! I guess I will never know her / his true gender as it would apear she is BOTH !!!!! With a little Fat squat body to the ground and a big bum - little chubby girlie legs and sweet little crown and waddles - THEN GUY FEATHERS ON THE NECK AND THOSE GUY FEATHERS ON THE TAIL!!!!!!!!
I wonder soemtimes if He / she will never crow or lay and will just be a pet.

I haven;t got a good pic of Omlet so will try to get soem tomorrow before they go.

Here is BLue all grown up and handsome!!!

Here is wee Omlet

They are going to a Farm owned by a fellow that used to rent big sheds out to Small businesses - we rented from him years ago so we know him.

Yes she is a Brahma. Although Sussex are a little similar the give away is the feathery bloomers on a Brahma.
Sorry to hear about your sons school probs. What age do they start school over there? I have a friend who works in the reception class at a local primary school over here and she said that they are a lot of children who aren't completely toilet trained. But the school making a big deal out of it is only going to distress your son and make him feel embarrassed which will make the problem worse not better. Give the school a little time, it make make your son feel confused and upset if you move him after he's only just started. I would suggest you give it until the Easter holidays and see how he settles and if the toilet training issue can be resolved.
Perhaps he just needs more reminders to go to the toilet and lots of praise for being a big boy when he takes himself there.

Well it may look good but it may not taste good. It depends on who's doing the cooking. Now weren't you supposed to post some pics of your new brooder? Send me a pm when you do cuz I'd really like to see it.
